    I gave a look at this linked post. I agree there is a logic to what Trump and Musk and the rest of those ghouls are doing. To clarify, I don’t actually think either men are indeed “stupid” and used it as a turn of phrase and a way of expressing my anger. I do think it’s incredibly short sighted though to ruin friendships with countries who you have economic and military cooperation with. The long term downsides I would imagine outweigh the short term gains for Trump and Musk personally. With this said, I don’t think either cares about anyone but themselves, so ruining the country and its relationship with Canada and more probably means little to them. My monster comment still stands.

      Exactly, they only care about personal gain. As Gramsci put it, the old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.
